Not to be Missed

Denver Larry

We luckily found this place accidentally on our way from Corvallis to Newport. We actually stopped for a farmers market and were told about the railroad museum. It was an incredible 2 hours of learning about the railroading history of the Pacific Northwest. Tom, (I believe that was his name) had an incredible knowledge of every piece of equipment and also had the stories to go with them. It was interesting to see the before and afters of the equipment they had restored. We were there on a weekday, so some of the special events that they do were not going on, so we got a lot of undivided attention. If you have any time to stop by and talk to the guys who work and volunteer there, I highly recommend it.
